Pours dark amber into a stem glass. Off-white conglomerate/micro head leaves slight sheet as it recedes to hold steady on the surface. Smoked plum and apricot aromas. Sweet and full with smoked pit fruit flavors and a lasting bitter finish.

Scotland makes some great fall/winter brews! This is excellent-- dark red-brown, tan head. Rich aromas of smoky caramel, a little peaty. Very flavourful, sweet but a bitter finish rounds it out. Rich and satisfying.

Bouteille de 500 lm de HodTownHarry. Belle couleur terre cuite foncée, petit collet qui reste. Petit arrome de malte caramelisé avec une sensation de scotch adorable. Goût un peu fumé, faiblemen sucré, pas trop de malte.

500 ml bottle. Dark brown with a red hue and an average-sized cream white head that clings to the glass. Crisp nutty and marzipan-like sweet aroma. Caramel malts and roasted malts. Distinct bitter and sweet flavour. Quite sharp bitterness balances the roasted toffee and coffee-like burnt malt flavour. More mellow mouthfeel and a long grassy bitter finish. Malt candy flavour. Quite nice actually.

Poured a clear dark copper brown from the bottle with almost no fizzy off white head. Slightly malty aroma, but little smell to speak of. Malty flavor and the malted barley adds a bit of spice. The taste is easy on the palate and watery but potent.

Pours a dark amber with ruby highlights with a decent-sized tan head. Nice aroma of sweet malt. Flavor is sweet, lightly roasted malts and caramel ... a soft taste not unlike a Wychwood brew. Mild hop finish, lightly astringent. A pleasant beer.
